glwdub Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I have an 05 legacy Gt auto with around 162k. I have had this for about 2 month and I have already about $2k in it of fixing problems and short cuts by the last owner. Yesterday I have uncovered a new problem, I pulled a P0458 code. I've looked around on the forums. Has anybody came across this issue and how did you fix it? Purge Control solenoid valve. I have replaced the mass airflow sensor. I also cleaned The terminals on the purge solenoid . Help please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apexi Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Sometimes when looking for the solution to a problem, I'll look at other subaru message boards, impreza, outback, etc.. I came across the thread below, and he said replacing that purge valve fixed his problem. http://www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/f88/help-obd2-reads-p0458-evaporative-emission-control-system-purge-control-valve-79632/ After searching parts.subaru.com, i came across two valves, MSRP for one is $46, $84 for the other. $46 and $84 is a fair amount of money.. But I'd still probably try replacing the valve to see if that fixes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been some people saying replacing the pcv valve fixed it, but I thought that was kinda off. The subi has a Perrin intake hose on it also I'm trying to figure out the mess. I'll update when I get the parts in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
